Abu Dhabi Race 2 - Race 2 - Al Izz Elite Cup Mdn Stakes
HAFEET NR (3) 5yo first starter by Af Albahar for trainer M Alshamsi. Watch betting. RB AL QAAHER (8) First up after 27 weeks and tidy run when 2nd first up last preparation here. Stepping down to a lower level. Putting a tidy record together. Dropping in distance. Respect. SOWWAN (9) First up after a 27 week break. Came in 5th last time around here and down in trip. Capable of forward showing and can be competitive. FURYNOCTURN DARTEO (13) First up and ran well when 3rd first up last preparation at the track. Dropping back to a shorter trip. Goes down in weight. Won't be far away.

Fresh from a 27 week break. Tidy effort when 3rd last start at Al Ain. Silvestre De Sousa and Ahmed Al Mehairbi are a proven combination. Watch for a sign in the market.
